F.E.A.T. Life Best of 2013 Music List

Best album of the year is pretty silly, especially considering that music taste is fairly subjective (up to a certain point). I’m not going to throne any particular album as the best of them all because in a year like this,where there were many worthy listens, it would not make sense. Rather I’ll give you a list of very enjoyable albums that are recommended if you listen to a lot of music like I do. I would let you know a general order of my most enjoyable projects, but that may end up biased towards what came first and how long I’ve been listening it, so I’ve chosen against that. The following lists feature a good mixture of rapping, singing, and production.
